cannot receive sms (text message) when mwg atom v off

[totalbug]

Hi I have been using a mwg atom v for a few months. I realised that when I leave the phone off (at night), I cannot receive the text messages sent to my number during the period when it is off, i.e. when I turn my phone on in the morning I cannot receive the text messages sent during the period it is off.

I tried asking the local mwg service centre (pcpro in Singapore) but they claim that this is not a phone issue; and when I called my network provider (Singtel) they claimed that they can't do anything about it also.

To me, it is a phone issue as I can receive messages when the phone is off if I use my SIM card in another regular non-PDA phone.

Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this problem? Hardware, software or network issues?

Many thanks!

Are you using the original MWG ROM that came with your Atom Life? if yes then i recommend that you consider upgrading to one of the new wm6.5 ROM's available. I have been using this one and it Rocks!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=490978 I have no problems recieving sms when my device is in "stan-by" mode. Note you can not turm off the AL unless you remove the battery and then re-insert it. Once you press the power button the device starts ang thereafter when you press the power button you are only putting the device in to stand-by mode.

If you do decide to upgrade your ROM then please read a few posts to get the general idea. The above ROM does not have a GUI so you must install it from a formatted 1Mb or less Memory Card (formatted in 16FAT). Put the memory card with new ROM file in to your device, the to put your device into "Bootloader" mode you must press and hold the RECORD button while pressing the reset button using your stylus, then release the RECORD button but release the RESET. Then the new ROM will install from the Memory Card. This process only takes about 5 minutes to be completed.

I have a similiar problem.
Mine cannot receive sms after I reply the sms until I turn off the signal (not the phone) and turn it back on. It's kinda a nuisance.

I try upgrading it to WM 6.1 but the problem persist...

Can anyone offer an advice plss??
